Life Inside a Tulip

It is an amazing hot day, and I am not at work!! The deck chair is out in the garden, I have got the Guardian and the coffee is on.
Anyway the tulips have opened in the sunshine and are showing off their wonderful interiors. This reminds me of my childhood when I spent a lot of time in my granny's garden poking my nose into tulip flowers, and being amazed at the deep black colouring which contrasted with the yellow and red. I think I was born to be a gardener.
